Where to start? I bought these in-ear headphones from Best Buy a while back. They lasted me around 3 hours of total time out of the box before the left earphone began to produce crackled sounds and static. I take incredibly good care of my belongings and my Apple In-Ear Headphones are still working fine after nearly 2 years of continuous use as my primary set of in-ears. They did isolate sound a bit, but nothing about them made me want to continue using them. Needless to say I returned them the next day. Never before have I ever seen a headphone of such poor quality.

Some claim that the $25 JVC Extreme Explosive HA-FX1X sounds almost the same as the Tour. I haven't heard the Tour. I do have the HA-FX1X though.It has very strong bass and an overall bright sound with very detailed midrange and highs.
